Construction Defect Attorney In Tucson For Owners, Builders, And HOAs

Leaks, cracking, HVAC failures—defects show up in punch lists and post-move-in headaches. Lancer Law coordinates inspections, preserves evidence, and pursues repairs or compensation under contracts and Arizona law. We work with engineers and contractors to distinguish warranty items from systemic defects, aiming to fix the problem quickly and cost-effectively.

Notice, Negotiation, Mediation, and Litigation

We prepare detailed notices, manage expert exchanges, and drive solution-focused meetings. Many matters settle through mediation with agreed scopes and timelines; when talks fail, we litigate to recover repair costs and related damages. For payment and lien issues tied to contested work, see our construction & lien law resources.
